She had no idea, no better than my kitten, as to how she would survive in this kingdom of her enemies. She must have thought that George was her savior. But not for long. Nobody knows quite what happened after that; but something went wrong with George's agreeable plan to own both Neville girls and keep their enormous fortune to himself. Some say that Richard, visiting George's grand house, met Anne again-his childhood acquaintance-and they fell in love, and that he rescued her like a knight in a fable from a visit that was nothing less than imprisonment.
